On my first appointment, he said he couldn't help me with my insomnia. Apparently, I had too much insomnia for him. No explanation was given. Waste of time, waste of money ( I still had to pay him), and I could have been seeing another doctor. Now it's back to searching for a good sleep specialist again and hopefully I won't die from going without sleep.

I had my first appointment re: sleeping issues today. Upon him entering, I was greeted with a fist bump, really? Second, he spent 10-15 minutes tops asking the same questions the MA asked and testing reflexes. He wanted me to do a sleep log and explained what to do, then told me "not to take offense, but I needed to lose some weight". Now, I am 5'9" used to range in weight from 145-150lbs (athletic) my lowest weight 128.When I was skinny I had the same issues and FHx of insomnia! NEVER go back.

Appointment takes an hour and a half. 10 minute of that is the doctor actually evaluating you TOPS. Then he just wants to do testing at his office so he can make the biggest profit. Doesn't care about helping the patient. Won't refer out for sleep testing. TOTAL WASTE OF TIME. Wouldn't even help me with the attention problems unless I did a sleep study. My primary doctor would have been just as good or better.

My experience with Dr. Sangal was poor at best. His appeared uninterested in me and my issues as he followed the same new patients script like he had done thousands of times in his career. I was just another source of income. After Cigna rejected his request for a 2nd sleep study I questioned why it was necessary and was told "that is how I run my business" and I could leave if I didn't like it. So I left!

I would NOT suggest taking a child to this man. He is rude, arrogant, borderline hostile, disparaging, and unfriendly. He did not listen to us, at all. It was a huge waste of time. In comparison to all of the specialists, hospitals, clinics, and sleep studies I have taken my son to, this was by far the worst experience with a physician we have had in over 7 years. The office is not inviting, or friendly, so don't expect to feel warm and fuzzy during any part of your appointment.

This was the worst clinical experience I have had. As a medical student I expected evidence based medicine to take place. From the clerk, nurse, and physician, I felt as though I was diagnosed with a revisit for a copay; I was charged $40 for a thorough exam that lasted all of 2 minutes. All the while I was told to come back for sleep apnea, a completely different reason for why I was there. I will never return to this office or this doctor.
